I own a home and nice piece of property, it is mine. Oh my. This was a long and arduous journey that first started in October of last year and with another home entirely. After broken contracts with the listing agent, which I plan to take to court, on the first home. I had to start the process all over immediately on another home and actually a better home. I cannot RAVE enough on the lender I used who is from these boards. He helped me sooooooooo much, I would have given up long ago. He went above and beyond the call of duty and helped me even when my Realtor was at a loss. His team is also incredible, answer everyone of my calls and texts, stayed in constant communication which is a huge deal to me. I know I would not have gotten the keys to my home today without this lender. I am single mom, I struggled for years with my credit score, in less than a year I was able to get my score from the 420's to a 696 Fico score (with the help of this forum) and buy my first home (also with the help of a lender from this forum) before my son move out and keep my vow to him that he will live in his own home and have his own room before he graduates high school.
This is insane lol I am to giddy!
Very nice, congratulations on the new home!
